"The version of Rockwell Studio 5000 Logix Designer installed on the remote Windows host is affected by a remote code
execution vulnerability. Due to incorrect authorization on a configuration file, any authenticated user can modify the
paths of external tools configured within the application. An attacker could alter the configuration to point to a
malicious executable, resulting in arbitrary code execution when any user interacts with the external tools
functionality. (CVE-2026-9127)

Note that Nessus has not tested for this issue but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version
number.");
